Feedly‘s quest to completely replace Google Reader continues, with another key piece of the puzzle: a fully operational channel on IFTTT. The change allows users to create recipes that combine Feedly with Evernote, Twitter, Facebook and just about any web app.

Among Google Reader’s core strengths was the sheer number of third party apps, services and hacks that supported it, as a quick look at the Google Reader tag on our site will show you. Feedly is working hard to replicate this, and the new IFTTT channel is a big part of that.

I have about 100 IFTTT recipes that work perfectly well. The Feedly recipes I created are not yet working. Maybe the Feedly servers are inundated and slow? It's worrisome. I rely on my Google Reader IFTTT workflow. Grr! Feedly is letting me down.

Let's hope that's temporary, because people rely on features like this...

I used to use feedly, but now I'm using Noowit.com. At first as a reader replacment, but now I also like that you can make your own personalised magazine which adapts to the interests of your readers. Check it out.
